Beside the other comments from John and Patrick I would like to
mention the style guide [1] where are some useful information for
screenshots written down. For one topic of this style guide, the user
name in screenshots, we had last week a discussion here at the list
[2]. As conclusion of this I would say, take as user name a
placeholder name who is typical for your language.

Well, quickshot is not developed any more and does not run under 12.04
(was designed for 10.04 which had an other python version, if I
remember correctly). If this will get fixed maybe someday, I wouldn't
use it anyway, because of the user name. It used the name "Quickshot"
who is as unsuitable as "Ubuntu user".

Greetings, Carsten
